After consulting some doc, it seems CreateFile is actually easier to use than 
_lopen, if only trivially so, due to the layout of the flags.  Also, _lopen 
is officially depreciated.

So, I am mostly stealing from msvcrt, and omitting several features 
SetupIterateCabinet probably won't need.  So far, it has proven most 
painless, consuming approximately 100 lines of code (although it is untested 
so far).  Thanks for your advice.
